Groundworks in Medway

Professional Groundwork Services in Medway

Groundworks is the part of a project nobody admires once it is finished, yet every structure and surface above depends on it. In Medway we prepare sites for new builds, extensions, driveways and car parks, getting the levels, drainage and foundations right before anything goes on top.

The firm has spent over 20 years on this kind of work, including contracts for Kent County Council and utility companies, so working to a specification and having that work inspected is familiar ground.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you take on groundworks projects in Medway?

Yes. Our base is in Staplehurst, and we work across Kent, parts of East and West Sussex and south-east London, so Medway and the surrounding ME1 area are covered.

What happens to the soil and spoil from excavation?

Spoil is reused on site where it is suitable, for example to adjust levels, and the rest is loaded and taken away. Grab lorries keep removal quick on larger jobs, and your quote sets out how the waste will be handled.

How long will the groundworks take?

It depends on the size of the project, the ground conditions and the weather, which affects excavation and concrete work in particular. We give you a programme with the quote and keep you informed if anything on site changes it. Call 01634 649378 to discuss your project.
